Tranny Drain & Fill on 07 or 08 V6

[Axxis8203]

Has anyone done a transmission fluid drain and fill on an 07 or 08 V6 yet?

Would be interested on how it went and any tips/pointers/observations?

I know Toyota states the ATF-WS is a "lifetime" fluid and never needs changing. But my previous experiences owning BMW's and Benz's tells me otherwise. With those brands "lifetime" was considered 100k, I expect quite a bit more life out of my Camry.

100K until the next change.

Just follow the TSB instructions for checking full level.....

Both tranny and coolant can wait till around 100k. Same for power steering too I believe. Or you can do them earlier at 75k or so, but not necessary now.

Now brake fluid and motor oil is a different story.

I just had the dealer replace mine @ 55k. It does feel smoother after the replace.

What I am curious is, if it specify 100k to change, does it mean once you change it @ 100k, you are essentially opening the manufacture seal. Does this mena the dealer will reseal it and the next change will be 100k later?
